Organiser's Description
The TOPEKA LIONS FOUNDATION, INC. is a 501 (c)(3) Not for profit organization operated by the TOPEKA LIONS CLUB.
Lions help purchase eye exams and eyeglasses for those who cannot afford to see. The need for assistance has grown as more and more people in the Topeka community are homeless. Individuals and families on a limited income and without insurance cannot afford to buy the glasses they need or their children desperately need to attend school and learn.
When you walk or run in the _JOURNEY FOR SIGHT_ you are helping aid these families and individuals. Each year we receive requests that exceed a cost of $10,000. Raising funds now will allow us to keep serving those in need.
New this year we are partnering with the EMERALD CITY COSMOPOLITAN CLUB as we seek to bring about the importance of Mental Health and Wellness.
